Similarities
Power Runners, especially near the goal line
Love the deep ball and have the arm talent to do it
Giant playmakers, especially when escaping tough pocket situations
Designed run QBs rather than primarily scrambles
Both will be Top 10 picks (maybe panthers?)

When they’re at their best, they love targeting the TE

Greg Olsen - 124 targets - 1104 yards - 7 TDs
Lance 2019 (last season played)
28 touchdowns
16 to TEs
(This may be a TJ Hockenson/Noah Fant tweet sitting at the 8/9 draft pick)

They’re weaknesses are similar due to their strengths
Their main game is, throw deep to WRs, great Mid game to TE or tuck and run, sometimes too early, rather than go through the whole progression

Trey has insane fantasy upside as a running QB, especially near the goal-line. He hasn’t played since 2019 and lacks experience and tough competition. Like Cam, he has the potential ceiling of a #1 Fantasy QB due to his play style...
Will Trey Lance become as good as Cam Newton?
